Subject: RE: [newbie] rebuild src.rpms with athlon optimizations


if RPM can't build athlon packages then why do I have
an athlon directory in /usr/src/RPM/RPMS ?

---

Duh, because you issued a --target=athlon command which creates it.

----

I read through the man and a whole crap load of other
documentation before I even asked my question.  I view
this list as a LAST RESORT not a starting place.

My system currently defaults to building i686
packages.  I know that there is a config file
somewhere that I can edit to make this work I just
can't remember which one ;-)

I also figured I'd start this conversation since I
know that a lot of people use amd processors and it's
nice for everybody to get as much bang for their buck
as they can *right now*.

Thanks for the RTFM answer dude.  Next time read the
thread before you post.

Next time you might just want to RTFM before -YOU- post a response like
this.

Just because you dislike the answer, doesn't mean it's wrong.
A sophomoric attitude doesn't help to get the answer you want.

As I pointed out RPM does -NOT- know anything about athlon "targets".

You must pass optimization switches to the compiler directly via RPM to do
this...

Now that I gave you (correctly) a hint about what you have to do, do a
little work and read how to do this.
